I will have more information as to where John's journey can be followed
soon, I know facebook is very limiting and I want to make a correction, John
is headed to Charleston, South Carolina not Charlotte as i reported earlier.
The past three days have taken a toll in no sleep and I apologize. Video
of departure will be up shortly on youtube.

Is information on his journey available anywhere but on facebook? If
his route brings him anywhere near DC I would be happy to host or
support him as needed and will be happy to pass along info to the
Capital Area Club.
